0:00ASo right, if you see this path right here, this path was basically -- or you see the -- looks like you see it, it’s kind of -- it goes down.
0:12BYeah, yeah, yeah, I see.
0:12AThey try to build a pond here. This pond was the inspiration for the Poltergeist when Steven --
0:22BOh really?
0:23ASteven Spielberg.
0:25BYeah, yeah.
0:25AWhen he somewhat came in this field and he got the inspiration here.
0:31BOkay.
0:32AThe movie at the end.
0:33BHistory in real time.
0:35AThat’s for real, for real. So the reason this park exists is because, I mean, like, you can look it up, everyone I think knows it, but dude cut corners.
0:46BHe told everyone like, hey, we gotta move this graveyard and for the respect of the families, remove their bodies. And this is also Indian burial ground. Um, or Native American. I don’t know why I said that, I’m so sorry.
0:59AJust keep going.
1:00BUh, but no, no, I’m gonna correct myself. What the fuck? Um, so --
1:04AStop playing with him.
1:06BStop. Uh, he’s an ethical baddie.
1:08ANo, but for real, Native American, whatever.
1:10BAnd this dude, um, said, imagine what capitalism is right now and how much they don’t give a fuck. Dude was like, all right, we imagine how much we would save if we just don’t unbury these bodies. And they didn’t. And now -- not right now, but in the past, like, uh, coffins have showed up, probably in this area right here because the pond, you know what I mean? Like a casket or something comes through. But thing is, is that’s what I think personally. I’ve taken mushrooms here a lot, and, um, one time I was just like laying in the middle of the field Midday mushrooms. There was only clouds around this park, and the clouds were shaped, in my opinion, they all looked like skulls. But that’s just like, you know, this is fun, you know what I mean? But one thing that wasn’t, you know, just random psychosis or just creativity, but it was just the entire city, no clouds, everything else. But there’s clouds here. It was just like, you know, I felt like some sort of spiritual feeling that this is an important place.
2:26AHmm. One way or another.
2:27BI mean, take mushrooms if you don’t fucking believe me. Fuck you too.
2:31AYou’ll feel it.
